Local Heroes

Of the myriad learning points from last weekend’s marches nationwide, one that particularly resonates is the power of the group effort. Locally, there are parents and teachers and students who will tell you that, whether private or public, the war on drugs is by far their greatest battle. We are impressed with the coalitions working together on Aquidneck Island with one goal in mind: to give students the necessary support to help them remain drug- and alcohol-free.
